Thomas Tuchel 'was sacked by Chelsea for off-field reasons and because the players lost respect for him' - according to an email from his ex-wife.

The revelation came in a hearing at Munich's district court following the split between Tuchel, 49, and his wife Sissi, 51, last year after 13 years of marriage.
